About this listen

When Josh Underwood is thrown through a wormhole and lands on an unfamiliar world, he is immediately attacked by flesh-eating worms and snarling wolves.

He has one huge advantage. A ring sits on his finger, but it's no ordinary ring. It's alien tech designed to improve its host’s strength, speed, agility, durability and combat instinct. Not all boons are infinitely wondrous. This tech has to understand what Josh needs for it to evolve, and time is of the essence.

An evil force is rising in Mythelore and threatening not only the land’s entire way of life but also Josh’s new companions—the lovely Arabella, Elowen, the wildly sexy archaeologist, and Cassandra, a sassy witch with no understanding of her true powers.

Only one question remains: Will Josh’s power grow in time to save them?

Voice Actress Jessica Threet, knows how to do her job, this book is not read it is Preformed, sneezes, yells, burps, and several distinct Voices with there own inflection, so i always knew who was speaking, top tier for sure

Story this is a good take on the whole, i am going to start a system to fight monsters in a world without such a system and it does pretty well, i have listened to a couple of the authors other work, i like the style.
the set up and pay off was nice to see done well for once, i was totally surprised a couple times when i thought i knew what was going to happen and it went a whole other way.

Story started a bit slow, but finished well

Good story, only thing that's a downside is single Voice actor instead of Dual. Dual would have made it much better

Adventure, laughs, thrills, and romance in just the right proportions! All that done by the Legendary Jessica Threet- and its a MUST "read"/listen! Can't wait to get to the next book in the series!

Just the right mix!

Story works pretty well. World building felt a little thin and I’m still not sure what’s what but that’s a minor detail. My biggest problem was the “love” between the MC and the women of the story. One conversation and a few looks and suddenly everyone is in love and part of a family. It’s a bit eye-roll inducing. But if you can get past that bit of cringe it’s worth a listen.

Decent effort

we want more! Overall a good story and characters the only negative is the MC is too much of a do gooder.

great story!

Story overall is good if not choppy at times. Characters are all loveable. Narration was ok, sometimes not matching tone I imagine. Sometimes hard to tell whose talking as her voice sounds the same. But could be written for better understanding.

Fun story

Was a terrific start, a nice mix of fantasy and technology. I was eager to get to book 2.

A great beginning

If you want a complex story and deep characters this is not the book for you.
I can definitely see the appeal of this book as someone who enjoys the rinse and repeat anime we get every season. This book is also better than other similar books but a few things threw me off.
I wasn't prepared for the constant level ups. Characters grasping tech but not planets or suns.
And just how there was no build up to sex scenes and even those were more raw when he supposedly felt deep feelings for the girls. The male dialog and acting left much to be desired. Some people do prefer this it's just not for me.
I may return if I see the books on sale but as someone who is not the target audience I'd rather not spend a entire credit.

This book was not intended for me

I enjoyed how the story progressed and the meat of it. It built well and kept me interested and listening, wishing it was longer. I am excited to start the next volume.

Good story

Good story with enough twists that sometimes you aren't sure which way things are going to end up. I also sometimes grin at the the author's literary license when the MC wins a battle. Sometimes the excitement of the story causes the individuality of the character's voice to blur into each other and the listener loses track of who is saying what. While I like Jessica, she doesn't have the vocal range/variations of some other female narrators. Regardless, this does not take away from the enjoyment of this book! Looking forward to starting the 2nd.

Excellent 1st Book in the series, but....
